I debated getting RAI which I think would have only run me $10 for the month but in the end decided not to.
    Yeah, but if BeIn isn't doing cycling anymore, you could dump them. I was thinking of it, but I think they're part of the package with Universal HD, which still does some bike races here and there. I'll have to check on that. I do have to hit the cable office and cancel RAI now.

      My cousin Tom Zirbel set the American Hour Distance Record last fall. Pretty cool video showing the process leading up to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6huaMhtnqz4

        For whatever reason on my cable Universal, which is showing the Tour de Suisse next week is a basic channel I guess because it doesn't show exclusively sports.

        Vandevelde and Schlanger calling the Dauphine which for NBC is about the best pairing you can get.

          I kinda like Schlanger and Gogo, although if I have to hear, "on the front and just drillin' it" one more time, I might scream.

          BeIn sucked, but at least they just used the Eurosport commentary for the races they showed. I love listening to the Eurosport pairs, any of them, although Carlton Kirby and Dan Lloyd are my faves. But it was funny listening to Rob hatch and Sean Kelly during Dumoulin's little roadside pit stop.

            I found the Dauphine pretty uneventful except for the last day or two. Fukalsang winning on time bonuses over Porte was interesting. Hopefully Froome's lack of form will carry over to the Tour and we will see a competitive one this year.

            Tour de Suisse has been pretty exciting, even with Roll on the commentary also NBC had the Tour of Yorkshire on last night. That they'll cover obscure races like this leaves me hopeful they will pick up all the races Bein had the rights to so at least I can watch re-caps of them.

                Velogames is up for the Tour.

                Watched the NBC preview looks like both Dumolin and Nibali are skipping the tour. In their contenders section they totally skipped over Fabio Aru, who looked good in the Dauphine to focus on Fugalsang as a contender. Really hoping for a competitive tour this year but since none of the other teams seem to have come up with a solution to deal with Sky it might be another boring domination by Froome with an occasional interesting stage, usually one that doesn't have an outcome on the overall.

                    Debated about taking Cav rather than Sagan and grabbing Quintana but I don't think Cav will be in shape. I might have taken Caleb Ewen but he's not doing Le Tour

                      Re: Cycling 2017.

                      Ok here's my team.

                      Ritchie Porte-22
                      Alberto Contador-16
                      Johan Estaban Chaves-12
                      Meintjes-10
                      Degenkolb-8
                      De Kort-4
                      Kwiatkowski-8
                      A. Lutsenko-6
                      F.Aru-14

                      I think Porte is a risk, but Froome costs too much and I wasn't thrilled with some of the other number 1's available. I think De Kort could get me some points for little cost.

                        NBC says you can stream all the stages at nbcsports.com I think it is. I'm hopeful Phil is not there after he got banned from Australian TV.

                              I'm in. Tried a new plan: pick the team as fast as I could with as little thought as possible. Now that I have finally stopped taking Little Richie P I'm sure he's going to win this thing by about seven minutes...

                              Romain Bardet 16
                              Peter Sagan 22
                              Greg Van Avermaet 8
                              Christian Knees 4
